"Even good old Albert Einstein had a couple of Longines himself back then, even though time was relative." This is the content we come here for! Bravo.

“Service marks from legends of the past” .. Beautiful how you admire and honor those long forgotten craftsmen, elevating them to the status of heroes.

Sometimes I come back to this channel months after watching the videos just to appreciate how positive all the comments are. Mr. Nekkid you have spawned a really positive and upbeat fan base. Thanks for your service Sir, I’m a proud member.

I know almost nothing about watches but I was mesmerized by this man's gigantic expertise, his humility, and his humanity. He is a lesson for us all.

'Even though time was relative'... The commentary itself is enough to watch the entire video.

The fact your ego is so in check that you don’t bother to include your mark inside the watch is awe inspiring. I can’t thank you enough for these videos. Many blessings on you.

Well personally i think those long forgotten craftsmen would look down and be proud to have your name next to there's, you my friend are an absolute legend.

The understatement of this Longines is incredibly charming.

a meticulous job requires high precision. Nice job

My grandmother used to have a jewellery shop including a watch repair service. I like to watch the master repairing watches . But he wouldn’t let me near! He was worried I might steal his craft! You are most generous. Thank you

One more reason to be thankful for the internet and KZfaq and for all the generous people who share their experience with us.

Out of many many watches you have done this simple, elegant and well made watch is one of my favourites. A thing of beauty and restored with immense skill

I know it’s something special when you open the watch and you say wow!. That speaks volumes

Watching this guy’s videos actually has an immensely calming effect on me. It’s just wonderful - and real.

I havent even worn a watch I about 15 years, but I find your videos so relaxing. Thank you do sharing your talent.

this fragile thing is still working since 1922. beautiful and respectful work

I am in awe of the person or persons who, back in the age, designed this watch movement, created the incredibly small fitting with such precision.

I've mentioned before that my dad was a watchmaker. In the early days he fixed clocks and would bring them home to test the timekeeping. Many of them chimed, and lots were cuckoo clocks. You can imagine what 12 noon was like!

Mesmerizing video! I happen to own a beautiful Longines (gold) myself.

I would say that your name is certainly worthy to appear next to the old masters. A beautiful restoration!!

10:46 😂 “....I never broke it...it broke by itself!”

A great class from a great teacher... I'm not a watch expert, but both my grandfather and great grandfather were watchmakers... I'm just an admirer... Kudos!

I'm blown away that they had the precision machinery to make such fine and precise parts in the 1920s.

This movement is truly a thing of great beauty. Those separate little bridges on the power train form a design that looks almost organic, like the segments of a sea shell creature or a flower maybe. Always a great honour to work on antique movements, knowing that those who created such things of majesty are long gone from this Earth. We are merely the present day custodians of their beautiful legacy. You Sir, did a great job here and I believe that because of what you did this little watch will be ticking away on this planet after our time is long gone too. Peace.. ✌

Just discovered you. I didn't realise how absorbing watch servicing is! You brought a memory back from the early 1980s, when at an engineering exhibition in Glasgow there was a company exhibiting microscopic screws which were for the watchmaking industry. They had 3 turns and were 3 thousands of an inch across. Without a microscope they just looked like dust. I was impressed...

This channel is worthy of it's own playlist.

You have new life back into the old boy. We should all look that good at one hundred years old. Thank you.

I've just recently found your channel and have watched you restore several time pieces. I can without a doubt say that you are gifted in what you do. Your mark is worthy in my opinion. I must say that this is my favorite time piece that you have done so far. My grandfather had one just like it and this video reminded me of him. Thank you for that. Keep doing what you do. Because of this video I'm going to try and find this particular watch and have it restored if needed. You are brilliant with your skills.

Today I decided to watch your video instead of the morning news. Unlike after watching the news, I now feel upbeat and well informed. Thank you, my brother! Also very much enjoy your interactions with your small philosopher. He is a real delight! You bring a good deal of joy and peace to these troubled times.

Welcome back. We've missed you. I know, I know, quality takes time. : ) Keep up the good work

To disassemble a watch that old need enormous knowledge and Confidence, something like going to war, salute to the Watchmaker and the Restorer.

What fascinates me is the beauty of the internal components and design. Something only the manufacturer and restorer can enjoy and appreciate. People typically don’t take apart their watch and marvel at the engineering….

A nice little back story, disassemble, clean, and reassemble. Relatively simple and Bob's your uncle. (Not to mention considerable craftsmanship, a good sense of humor (or humour) and hours of inspired film editing.) As always, thanks for sharing.

I stopped wearing my watches decades ago. Now that I’ve seen a few of your videos, I’ll think I’ll wear some of them again.

I love this! Thank you for being so informative and so willing to teach. I have recently cultivated a love for wrist watches and am learning the difference in movements.

What a spectacular timepiece. Thank you for bringing this back to life!

Your new camera is worth the wrath of the accountant! Another job well done. The movement looks more like a pocket watch than a wristwatch. It's lovely when craftsmen care enough to decorate parts that most will never see.

Yes!!! My favorite watch maker!

I am really amazed to see, how he is tearing off the smallest parts one by one and remembering each and every tinny little parts back to the original position. And in the process of reassembling all the parts to the watch into motion and functional. Really a genius task to accomplish such a job requiring passion, experience, knowledge and skills.

Your client is lucky in two ways. One, to actually own such a watch and two, to find such an accomplished restorer as your good self. A watch I would be proud to own myself.

Inspiring. Watching you and listening to you is therapy.

Silver has such a unique luster too it when highly polished, which was beautifully shown here. Fantastic as always!

The mirror-like finish and plain spotless back case, so lovely.

Your Mark needs to be in these watches! That is the history of the watch! You should want to be in the history of every watch that you restore and that goes through your shop. Plain and simple! You not leaving your mark in the watch is taking something from the watch!!!

What a beautiful watch, so well made. It's amazing to see them when you have completed restorations on those mechanical marvels.

Love the history lesson that is thrown in... I do enjoy your videos...

Once again you have brought back to life a magnificent example of superb engineering! Thank GOD there are still people around with such passion to restore such things of beauty! I wish i had the skill to do the same!

What a lovely movement, loved all the machine turned detail, stunning!

Truly amazing, beautiful to witness your skill in bringing this back to life, plus all the history.

Absolutely beautiful work as always - really bought that humble little cushion watch back to life and made it something very special.

A true artist has humor...."Like his uncle" LMAO! Hats Off!

My brother was fascinated with reverse engineering, he took everything apart and sheepishly scurried away upon completion of his dastardly deed. Suffice it to say, all of his projects remained unfinished to the present day. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this restoration master craftsman.

That watch is glorious, a wonderful piece that deserves to be worn and loved

Those classic words used in every generation without fail. I didn't do it, and It broke by itself 😂👍 Keep up the good work watchmaker and son

Your voice and accent gives me “comfort vibes”….

Looking at the movement of this watch is like looking at a work of art. Beautiful restoration Nekkid Watchmaker.

You are too humble. You should add your mark alongside the others, be a part of the watch's history.

It’s amazing that you can wind up the mainspring while talking about the evolution of synthetic lubricants at the same time.

Restoring history. This is how watchmaking should be. The detailed steps, so intricately applied makes it the finest finish.

I think one of my favorite parts of this channel is the dialogue between family members

Nothing better than coming home from a hard days work and having a new video from this blessed soul Mr. Nekkid. Cheers my good man.

Beautiful piece. Thank you for sharing and giving it new life!

Retired from the Industry my friend. Lovely and beautiful memories watching you video's

This is the first time I have seen your video, it was very interesting and in particular, I enjoyed all of the details that were shown. I had never seen a watch taken apart before, it was more intricate than I ever imagined. You have great patience to work with such tiny screws.

Fantastic channel, down to earth and real everything a watch enthusiast family man wants thanks for your hard work.

Beautiful work. Love these old watches from the 20s, 30s, and 40s. Glad you could inject some new life into it for someone else to enjoy.

Always such an incredible job you do. It's almost a dying trade and less people are able to do such work these days compared to when this watch was originally made.

I've been binge watching all yr videos. For some reason, this was an especially lovely vid. Maybe it's because the watch had such an elegant movement. But all of them do... thank you for making these videos. They're like a peaceful respite from all the noise outside.

I love how the gorgeous patina was kept on the dial!!!

Beautiful work, professionally done! Thank you for sharing!

That movement is so beautiful. Never seen anything quite like that before.

Such a beautiful watch, given a second chance through your hands. Really great to watch your skill with these beautiful watches.

I wish I could watch and listen to you restore any of my watches. I love everything about this channel

This is beautiful, what you make is art, is so therapeutical. Looking forward to the next video. Greetings from Mexico. Cheers

I enjoy the commentary. If anyone deserves to leave a mark it's you.

The commentary is what is special about your videos.

What a beauty. I love Longines... I'm looking for the right one on and off

I’m watching a genius master craftsman service a masterpiece all the while sadly reminiscing a about when my sons were young and wanted to help me do every task. Such warm memories.

I have a beautiful little break top 38 Smith and Wesson pistol made in 1922. The precision of machining 100 years ago was meticulously done!

to design a watch from scratch, make a blue print of all the parts and have all the pieces made that to me is the amazing part.

Fantastic skill level and patience sir, every time I see your skill level it reminds me that my journey has just begun, you are a great inspiration, please keep the videos coming and thank you :-)

A simple, beautiful watch. Classic, and now your work is part of its story.

Bro just wanted to say a massive thank you for your content. not only did you restore the watches, but my faith in humanity. one love, keep up the great work and the Epic Commentary, please.

Watching the design and construction of this marvel induces profound respect,... to watch the *Nekkid Watchmaker* revitalize such an icon just _adds_ to the experience! . . . 💓

Beautiful work. Long after you're gone, after all of us are gone, this gorgeous Longines watch will still be ticking away....

That's maybe the most beautiful watch I've ever seen. Was interesting to see you breath some life into it.

You give the watches the reason to Live again They in turn give the proud owner A reason to Smile Thank you for these wonderful videos with the cool sense of humor in your narration Thank you youtube .

As always... most satisfying and enjoyable! I am amused by my range of video interests.. from you and your calm measured precision.. to Andrew Camarata's expertise and range of abilities in heavy equipment and operating and repair skills while building and clearing land! Thank you, kind man and father.

Always a pleasure to hear your kind words and see your skills, good work!

Fascinating! I'd never seen a watch stripped to its bare components before.

Just love this guy and his loving, humorous and knowledgeable approach to these videos. He is a great teacher!

Stunning. Thrilling. I cannot believe the incredible patience and skill this guy has. Lovely presentation as well. Beautiful, perfect restoration.

The way how you do your videos, makes me feel like im in the shop with you 👍

Another beautiful video! The technical aspects are very interesting and a real education for those lucky enough to do this for a part of their living if not for their full livelihood! May God bless you and your family as you continue your beautiful work!

Gorgeous work! Absolutely breathtaking!

Beautiful transformation. I enjoyed every second of this video from beginning to end. Thank You

I have no clue what he's talking about but I feel my IQ jumped by *watching.*

Such a lovely old timepiece. Glad it reached your loving care before it fell into disuse and was sold for parts alone. Thank you my friend. Peace to you as well.

I have no intention of ever cleaning or restoring a watch, but watching your videos and listening to your calm, reassuring voice, is a pleasure.
